Hideo Kojima on AI and game development: It can boost efficiency but may strip away the most valuable trial-and-error process in creation

Hideo Kojima told Game*Spark that AI can boost game development efficiency like Photoshop or word processors. He does not oppose this but worries it may skip the most valuable trial-and-error process in creation—the joy of building something by hand rather than using a finished product. He believes if left unchecked, AI could eventually replace humans in creative work, though he sees no major issues for the next 5 to 10 years.
